- Subject: Win32 os.popen and os.execute substitutes
- From: "Steve Donovan" <sjdonova@...>

Hi all,
I've found the following patch to be very useful in Win32 programs
with embedded Lua; it replaces os.execute with a version that
doesn't create the dreaded black box, and provides a version
of os.popen that works in GUI programs (_popen _only_ works
in console apps!) About 100 extra lines.

It's been tested in SciTE and works very nicely.
At least this is a genuinely new topic ;)
